Daddy Please Don’t Go

+26

Time is waiting
I am pacing
My daddie is fading
Daddie do you see?
That maybe it wasn’t meant to be….
Daddie is mad
Mommie is mad
While I’m confused
Daddie says he can’t see it like old times
Mommie says it will
Never be the same
What am I to say?
Daddie please don’t leave me
Daddie please don’t go
Daddie won’t you stay?
just hold me once more
Daddie I’m sorry
For everything I did
Daddie I’m sorry for not
Making my bed…
Daddie I’m sorry for pouting when I was told to do my chores
Daddie I’m sorry for acting like everything was a bore
Daddie we grew tired of listening And watching the fights
Oh daddie we got restless
Of having to say good-bye
Daddie I know you love us
But you say you’re really scared
Daddie you were once reckless
But would you really go back there?
To all the pain and misery of never really being there
Daddie it was harsh To not be with you a lot
But daddie don’t you know
Now that we’re older we don’t
Daddie please don’t drink
Daddie please don’t smoke
Daddie please don’t say good-bye
And forever SHUT the DOOR…
